“Erse” Etna Rosso DOC Erse is named after the Greek goddess of dew as a fitting tribute to the time of day when this dew- kissed vineyard is the most picturesque. Erse is made from a blend of Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio grown in the ancient volcanic soils on the hillsides of Mt. Etna, the highest active volcano in Europe. The grapes are fermented in stainless steel in order to deliver all the undiluted character and freshness of this unique terroir.
“Il Musmeci” Etna Rosso Riserva DOC This wine is dedicated to the Musmeci family, in particular, Mr. Musmeci, who for so many years looked after these estate vineyards (“I vigne di Fessina”) with so much love that today the winery is able to cultivate 80-year-old vines. This cru-level wine is made from a blend of Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio from the oldest vines of the estate grown on the highest hills. The resulting wine is unparalleled in richness, concentration, and depth.
